pH
Humidity
Temperature
Wind Speed
Light Intensity
Select all the situations in which an enzyme could become denatured
Temperature is above optimum
Temperature is below optimum
pH is above optimum
pH is below optimum
These are the results on an experiment testing the effect of pH on starch breakdown by an enzyme. Iodine was added to the enzyme-substrate solution at regular timed intervals. What was the optimum pH of the enzyme used?
5

8
An experiment is set up to test the effect of temperature on enzyme activity. Select ALL of the suitable control variables for this experiment
Volume of solutions
Temperature of solution
Enzyme Concentration
pH of solution
Why does the graph begin to plateau (level off?)
Temperature becomes too high so enzyme denatures
Substrate being used up so less enzyme-substrate complexes form
